new shops and studio chaos

I really shouldn't be writing this post... I should be making... but just thought I'd share with you 3 lovely new stockists.

From the top... Zig Zags in Dunkeld is run by musician Dave Amos and artist Madeleine Hand. A treasure trove of all things arty and crafty.

then... Kirsteen Stewart Boutique in Orkney is owned by textile designer Kirsteen and stocks jewellery, art work, clothing, bags, ceramics and homeware from Scottish designers. Her prints and fairtrade work are fantastic and well worth a look.

and finally... Coastal Creatives, Bournemouth is run by the very lovely Rachael and Louise and has just been named in Coast magazine's top 10 seaside shops. For all things beachy and beautiful this is the place to look.

so I'd better get back to the sewing then.
